The enjoyment of any good thing is only enhanced by sharing it with others.

I'm not the greatest vumper, and most of my voting is done quietly, but regularly, throughout most waking hours. But, wow, I can't believe how programmed I became to interrupting whatever I was doing, and walking over to the computer to vote and checking in on fff.net to see what people are saying. I still do it, or start off in that direction, but have to bring myself up short. Strange feeling.

We'll have to come up with a 12 Step Program for that.

Vumpers Anonymous, anyone?

I imagine you won't wanna continue the deal - perfectly understandable. If Lexxians choose to continue voting, I'll still vote for Firefly, BSG and Roswell each time I vote for Lexx, because I greatly appreciate the help you did for us.
You being included in the cheat program meant only good, please try to view it from that angle too. Yes, we should have asked you, I admit that's a big mistake on my part, I ADMIT IT, SORRY!!! It's not an excuse, but at the time, I still didn't know whether it worked or not. After we had a confirmation, that it worked, I was gonna come here and write personally to each of you, asking whether you'd want the program or not and spread it silently. That was my plan at the time, I didn't write openly, because rich was checking the threads and he'd discover us much easier than he did now. Perhaps it would have been better though. I never mentioned anything to anyone, because it didn't work.

Sorry for the discomfort we caused and for causing a question of your integrity. That was never our intend.
As I said I will continue to vote for Firefly and the rest of the nice folks. If you'd like to continue the deal with the baddies we are, you'll be most welcomed! If not, which is the more probable outcome, you won't lose my votes.

Wish you all the best!!!

Heynielsen.com is worth some effort, as it has grown enormously over the last few months (according to siteanalytics.compete.com), and is now got four times the traffic of richlabonte.net, and about the same as us at fireflyfans.net.

However, if you want a multiple vote fix, check out;
http://www.space.com/php/multimedia/spacemovies/
index.php?url=spacemovies_serenity_00.jpg&cat=spacemovies

Where we are being beaten by Star Wars. I believe you can vote once a day. We were stuck at number 10 for a while, but a few Browncoats have managed to get us up to number six. There is more work to be done here.

BTW, just take the above URL and turn it into a new location item on your desktop. Click once a day, to get a needed fix.

Hey, does this make me a pusher?

If you had contacted me 'silently' as you say it, here's what would have happened.

I would have explained, carefully, with links, that what you were planning on doing was clearly against the rules; I would have given you two days to 'come clean' with Rich on your own, after which I would have sent a note to Rich advising him on the situation if it was not made clear to me that he had somehow become aware of it.

Don't you understand that it's a 'warning flag' that you would even have thought of 'doing it silently' that what you were doing was wrong?

Well said, leadb. In situations like this, an under-the-radar deal doesn't pass the stink test.

Personally, I'm not even willing to participate in the kind of reciprocal voting deal that was in place between (some) Lexx fans and (some) Firefly fans. The whole point of the TV Vote site is to give an indication of the size and loyalty of a show's fan base. The only way that works is if every individual votes for the show or shows they really think are the best.

Why would I ever vote for Lexx, having never even seen it? Sorry, FedExxx, but that's the way I feel about it.

In my case, there are only three shows listed in the top 40 that I would consider voting for. Firefly is the only one of those I really care about; my occasional votes to the others are more of a recognition of their significance to me. There's one show I'd be happy to vote for if it were in the top 40, but it's not and I'm not willing to go through the effort of nominating it. So there you go.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm pointin' right at it!

Just curious Doncoat; what would be that 'other' show you'd like to see in the top40?

It seems to me, that you are sorry for being caught. Not the cheating. To me that is worse.

A voting bot, for christ sake, think for few seconds, man. You cant do that, its wrong.
